Investigations & recommendations
Geotechnical studies
Geotechnical investigations and foundation recommendations based on actual ground conditions, supporting correct design, predictable budgets and reduced construction risk.
Boreholes & testing • Technical interpretation • Bucharest & nationwide
Why it matters
The geotechnical study influences the foundation, cost and programme
Without proper investigations, design is based on assumptions: over- or undersized foundations, excavation surprises, water, fill or settlement that alters the budget and schedule.
A properly conducted geotechnical study provides real parameters and applicable recommendations, making design and execution predictable.
Deliverables
What we deliver
A geotechnical report suitable for design and construction, with investigations, interpretation and practical recommendations.
Investigation programme
We define the type and extent of investigations according to the site, building and objective (permitting / design / optimisation).
Results & stratification
We present the ground stratification and relevant results where applicable so the designer works from actual conditions.
Interpretation & conclusions
We interpret the data and formulate technical conclusions regarding behaviour, sensitivities, limitations and construction implications.
Foundation recommendations
We propose foundation solutions and construction conditions tailored to the project: depths, pressures and measures for water, fill or settlement where applicable.
Designer support (optional)
Targeted clarifications and recommendations for design integration and technical construction decisions.
Services
Geotechnical study services
Select the appropriate service. We provide practical recommendations for design and construction.
Geotechnical study for permitting
Design/approval documentation tailored to the site.
Geotechnical investigations (boreholes & samples)
Boreholes, samples and tests providing real data for correct decisions.
Foundation recommendations
Practical recommendations for civil/industrial buildings based on actual conditions.
Ground / risk assessment (water, fill, settlement)
We identify sensitivities and risks that may affect the budget and deadline.
Geotechnical consulting for the designer
Clarifications and interpretation for correct design integration.
Construction support (clarifications/optimisations)
Targeted on-site support: clarifications, measures and optimisations where required.
Method
How we work
From brief to practical recommendations: investigations, interpretation and clear conditions for design and construction.
Objective & site
We establish the purpose (permitting/design/optimisation), type of construction and site conditions.
Investigations (boreholes & testing)
We carry out relevant boreholes, sampling and tests so the data reflects actual ground conditions.
Interpretation & conclusions
We interpret the results and identify sensitivities: water, fill, settlement and stratification.
Recommendations & construction conditions
We provide foundation recommendations and conditions applicable to design and execution, plus clarifications where appropriate.
Risk control
Risks we address early
Good geotechnical work reduces construction surprises and eliminates design based on assumptions.
Incorrect foundations
Over- or undersizing that increases costs or causes structural issues.
Unexpected conditions during excavation
Unexpected strata, weak materials, fill or obstructions.
Water / groundwater level
Influences excavation, stability and measures required during construction.
Settlement
Total or differential settlement that may affect long-term performance.
Design changes
Late changes caused by missing actual parameters, resulting in costs and delays.
Unforeseen costs
Higher construction costs caused by ad hoc measures taken without a technical plan.
Real data • Practical recommendations • Predictable construction
Who it is for
Who the geotechnical study is for
Geotechnical information is a critical design input and a project risk-control tool.
Profile
Developers & investors
When you want budget and programme control before construction: correct foundations, reduced risk and a predictable plan.
- practical foundation recommendations
- identifying ground risks
- more stable construction estimates
Profile
Designers & structural engineers
When you need real parameters and technical interpretation: correct integration into the project and well-founded decisions.
- useful sizing data
- construction conditions (water/fill/settlement)
- clarifications and targeted support (where applicable)
